2018 Christmas Tree

Here is how the 2018 Christmas tree turned out.  (Got to admit disappointment, but I only had 1 day off work from Thanksgiving to the 21st -- so little time was allowed for the tree).




The oldest ornament to make it on the tree was this little baby (probably from 80's):


3 little Dreamsicles from the early 90's also made the cut:




These little clothespin dolls were fun to make  I made 3 for this tree:





The topper this year:


A couple of the birdhouses that I had posted before.  (The pearls that I had strung and posted also show in almost every picture here).




Factory Direct Craft is were I bought my paper mache stars (I added the white paint and glitter):




I made a sock snowman for this tree:


and a rag ball:


and a faux quilted ornament:


and some clear glass balls with glitter inside and pearl balls and styrofoam glitter balls on a stick and my nests (which I had posted earlier and are too deep in the tree for a decent picture).

May you and your family have a Happy New Year!

Amelia's Blue Tree

We put up a little gold pencil tree in the spare room for Amelia this year.  She wanted blues...
